Shrek The Musical '15

Ryley and Kadyn had such a great experience at theatre camp this year. They walked in hoping to land the parts of Donkey and little Fiona (two parts they felt fit them well) and walked out being cast as Shrek and Fiona. Both were nervous and unsure they could pull it off. Ryley was comfortable with comic relief characters and Kadyn has always preferred supporting roles. Two weeks past, rehearsal after rehearsal, and finally opening night was upon them. Can I just tell you, they rocked it! Our girls went out on stage and nailed their performances like never before. It was an awesome thing to watch. I was even allowed to FaceTime Dad in for the entire final show. As a parent its always a great thing to watch your kiddo succeed, but when they succeed after fighting through doubts and uncertainties, it's awesome.
